Glossary

POC = Proof of concept

Service Virtualization = “A test double often provided as a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), is always called remotely, and is never working in-process directly with methods or functions. A virtual service is often created by recording traffic using one of the service virtualization platforms instead of building the interaction pattern from scratch based on interface or API documentation.” (ref1)

Stub = “A minimal implementation of an interface that normally returns hardcoded data that is tightly coupled to the test suite.” (ref1)
